This is all a bit confusing. I got Presidents Club, based on my Avios Barclaycard, although I didn’t have that card number saved in my profile – maybe that why I didn’t seem to get my status recognised on my last rental? Now I am hearing that the Avios Barclaycards might not actually have World Elite benefits anyway!
Now I have a Platinum Amex, how do I get the status re-linked – by email as above? I can’t put my Amex Plat card number in my Avis profile as it only seems to accept a mastercard – presumably based on my supposed MC-based status.
Do you need to use the appropriate card, when making a booking, to get the avis status benefits?
